Evidently not. But here's your answer: No, you cannot game the system by designating players, calling up replacements, using the replacements for a "couple of days" and then putting your designated players back on your big league roster. There is a waiting period and it is not "a couple of days".

I recently took over a team, and put them in Iowa City. But I am an Iowa State Cyclone fan, and really don't like the Iowa Hawkeyes. How can I resolve this in my own conscience, and start sleeping at night again?

No, that's not surprising at all as almost everyone thinks they should rebuild. But that team could win 90 without doing anything but accepting mutual options(55m or so). That said, it was set up to go one of two ways. 1. Accept the options and contend with a payroll starting around 85m. 2. Decline the options and rebuild with a payroll starting around 40m. I guess he's choosing option 2.

let's say you have a team that you were unsure whether they'd be a .500 team or closer to a .700 team. and let's say they're working their way up to closer to the .700 mark. how many games in do you think is long enough to be fairly confident that the team is what it is and it would be worth it to promote prospects to go along with it?
